We’re certainly not wanting for e-readers this week, although we are definitely wanting for one that’s compelling enough to shell out good money for — which is fine, because company’s all over God’s green Earth seem to be working overtime to give us one. Take Jinke — the company’s switched from E Ink to SiPix panels for the A6 and A9 readers, both of which are planned to sport multitouch, 16 levels of grayscale, WiFi a/b/g, and optional 3G — as well as the usual compliment of formats (FB2, EPUB, PDF, most image formats, and MP3). The former is a 6-inch (600 x 800) device with 2GB of storage, an SD slot, and an accelerometer. The Jinke A9 features a 9-inch (1024 x 768) panel, and up to 4GB storage. Both the A6 ($275) and the A9 ($330) should be available in March.
